Tudela - Catedral de Santa Maria

The Catedral de Santa Maria in Tudela was erected late 12th century on the place, where the Great Mosque of Tudela (9th c.) had stood before. The cathedral is really large (65m x 52m) but unfortunately was closed, so I could not see the well known cloister.

I was very impressed by the late-Romanesque "Puerta del Juicio". The slightly pointed portal, created wirthin the 13th century, has eight archivolts and 122 different icons. On the left side is an insight view into hell.

There are as well people at work. Just below the butcher and his dog (previous upload) is a cloth merchant discussing quality and price of the linen or even silk with a prospective customer. The cloth must be pretty expensive, as it is stored in a chest, that could be locked. Note the keyhole.
